Eagles lose LB T.J. Edwards to the Bears

[exciter]

Damm, there’s a player I thought they could and should have taken a run at!

 

[MAZEREZAM]

Same type of money people on here are willing to give LVE. Edwards has averaged 145 tackles the last 2 seasons. LVE has averaged 83 and has a history of neck issues.

Would we do this deal for LVE? This seems like the ballpark for him.

Why would we? LVE needs to be replaced.

I would rather Wagner but would be fine with LVE back.

I want him replaced with a stud. Now if we were to sign a stud DT then fine. But the Cowboys need to bring in a stud MLB or a stud DT. Cant go soft on both if we expect to win a title.

 

[RandyOh]

I’m sure they’ll get a nice 3rd round comp pick lol

They will get the first ever 1st round comp pick

Bears do have the most cap space. I figured they would be active in free agency.

The Bears are taking the place of the Jacksonville Jaguars in Free Agency.

I could roll with Hankins and Wagner.

and Bears sign LB Tremaine Edmunds from Buffalo.

Good move and plenty more to come. Bijan or JSN is gonna be the #9 pick, the rest of the needs will be in FA.

Maybe the Eagles come after LVE now ?

The Bears really are making some brilliant moves this offseason. I could see them becoming a real force in the NFC North.

Bijan in Chicago would make a fascinating move. I think they'd do well to go WR Johnston from TCU, but I could see them going Bijan. He'd give them a top RB to go with DJ Moore.

i guess since its Philly its ok they havent gotten a marquee linebacker first day

Well, they do have equity. They made Hurts a MVP and got to the SB.

The eagles LBs have always been mediocre but they play behind really strong DTs that keep them clean to make tackles. Edwards (was undrafted) is slow at 4.87 in the 40. That screams 3-4 inside LB to me.

 

[conner01]

IMO seems like a deal in the 6-7mil range is fair to both sides for LVE.
Unless Dallas thinks that's a honest offer for Wagner.

It may be an option
Seems like their first choice is Wagner and it would be mine too. But if the ask is too rich LVE is a solid fall back plan

He’s better than LVE, regardless of them playing different positions, and LVE shouldn’t be making that type of money for what he offers.

Ehhhh, I've been called a closet Eagles fan with my defense of them but this year, I wouldn't be too sure on them being a lot more active than us. They really are up against the cap. The run off from the defense alone could be eye popping. I am not sure you'll see them bring in any big vets like they did last year with the Brown trade or the Reddick signing.

That's not to say we are somehow doing it as well. We clearly are not, but even the Eagles and their GM are seeing the harsh realities of a capped league.

Yeah, signed Kelce for 14 million, gave Bradberry like 40 million, gave Cox 8 million, signed a RB and probably with pay big money for CJGJ. Really harsh. I'm not an expert at FA but Howie has the cap beat.
Oh, Brandon Graham too
